Fabric binding is configured on a per-VSAN basis. In a Fibre Channel VSAN, only the switch world wide name (sWWN) is required; the domain ID is optional.
A user-specified fabric binding list contains a list of switch WWNs (sWWNs) within a fabric. If an sWWN attempts to join the fabric and that sWWN is not on the list, or the sWWN is using a domain ID that differs from the one specified in the allowed list, the Inter Switch Link between the switch and the fabric is automatically isolated in that VSAN and the switch is denied entry into the fabric.

Command Modes
Command History
|
|
|
|---|---|
Usage Guidelines
Fibre Channel standards require a unique FC ID to be allocated to an N port attached to a Fx port in any switch. To conserve the number of FCIDs used, Cisco NX-OS switches use a special allocation scheme.
Some Host Bust Adaptors (HBAs) do not discover targets that have FC IDs with the same domain and area. The switch software maintains a list of tested company IDs that do not exhibit this behavior. These HBAs were allocated with single FC ID for other HBAs, a full area was allocated.
To allow further scalability for switches with numerous ports, the switch software maintains a list of HBAs that exhibit this behavior. Each HBA is identified by its company ID (also known as an Organizational Unique Identifier, or OUI) used in the pWWN during a fabric login. A full area is allocated to the N ports with company IDs that are listed and for the others, a single FCID is allocated. Regardless of the type (whole area or single) of FCID allocated, the FCID entries remain persistent.
Examples
This example shows how to add a new company FCID to the default area company ID list:

This command distributes the default values for the default zone to all Virtual SANs (VSANs). The default values are used when you initially create a VSAN and it becomes active. If you do not want to use the default values, use the zoneset distribute full vsan command to distribute the operational values for the default zone.
Use the system default zone distribute full command only be used with VSANs that have not yet been created; thus command has no effect on existing VSANs.
Because VSAN 1 is the default VSAN and is always present, this command has no effect on it.
Examples
This example shows how to configure the default values for enhanced zone mode:

Usage Guidelines
You disable the trunking protocol on a switch, no port on that switch can apply new trunk configurations. Existing trunk configurations are not affected, and the TE port continues to function in trunking mode, but only supports traffic in Virtual SANs (VSANs) that it negotiated previously (when the trunking protocol was enabled). Also, other switches that are directly connected to this switch are similarly affected on the connected interfaces. In some cases, you may need to merge traffic from different port VSANs across a nontrunking Inter-Switch Link (ISL). Before you merge traffic, you must disable the trunking protocol.
Examples
This example shows how to disable the trunk protocol feature:
switch(config)#
This example shows how to enable the trunk protocol feature:

vsan
To create multiple fabrics that share the same physical infrastructure, assign ports to Virtual SANs (VSANs), turn on or off interop mode, load balance either per originator exchange or by source-destination ID, and create VSAN membership, use the vsan command. To remove a configuration, use the no form of this command.
vsan vsan-id [ interface { fc slot / port | san-port-channel port | vfc vfc-id } | interop [ mode ] [ loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id } | name name [ interop [ mode ] [ loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | suspend [ interop [ mode ] [ loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | suspend [ interop [ mode ] [ loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }] | loadbalancing { src-dst-id | src-dst-ox-id }]]

|
|---|---|
Usage Guidelines
To use this command, change to the VSAN database mode.
The interface range must be in ascending order and nonoverlapping. You can specify a range using a hyphen and several interfaces using commas:
- The interface range format for a Virtual Fibre Channel interface range is
fcslot/port - port, fcslot/port, fcslot/port:
For example, show int fc2/1 - 3, fc2/4, fc3/2
For example, show int san-port-channel 5.1
- Interop mode 1 — Standard-based interop mode that requires all other vendors in the fabric to be in interop mode.
- Interop mode 2 — Brocade native mode (Core PID 0).
- Interop mode 3 — Brocade native mode (Core PID 1).
- Interop mode 4 — McData native mode. Before you configure Interop mode 4 (or remove the configuration), you must suspend the VSAN. You should unsuspend the VSAN only after you configure a VSAN-dependent switch WWN with the McData Organisational Unit Identifier (OUI) [08:00:88].
The no form of the vsan vsan-id interface command is not supported. To remove a VSAN membership of an interface (for example, interface fc1/8 from VSAN 7), you must assign the interface to another VSAN. The best practice is to assign the interface back to the default VSAN (VSAN 1).
Examples
This example shows how to create multiple fabrics sharing the same physical infrastructure and how to assign ports to VSANs:
switch-config-vsan-db# vsan 2
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 name TechDoc
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-id
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 loadbalancing src-dst-ox-id
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 2 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# no vsan 2 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# end
This example shows how to suspend a VSAN and enable Interop mode 4:
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 suspend
switch(config-vsan-db)# vsan 100 interop 4
switch(config-vsan-db)# exit

Before using the zone mode enhanced command, verify that all switches in the fabric are capable of working in enhanced zoning mode. If one or more switches are not capable of working in enhanced zoning mode, the request to enable enhanced zoning mode is rejected.
When the zone mode enhanced vsan command completes successfully, the software automatically starts a session, distributes the zoning database using the enhanced zoning data structures, applies the configuration changes, and sends a Release Change Authorization (RCA) to all switches in the fabric. All switches in the fabric then enable enhanced zoning mode.

Usage Guidelines
Zones are assigned to zone sets. Zone sets are then activated from one switch and propagate across the fabric to all switches. Zones allow security by permitting and denying access between nodes (hosts and storage). Enter the zone name commands from the configuration mode. Configure a zone for a VSAN from the config-zone mode.
Use the show wwn switch command to retrieve the switch world wide name (sWWN). If you do not provide an sWWN, the software automatically uses the local sWWN.
Examples
This example shows how to configure attributes for the specified zone (Zone1) based on the member type (pWWN, fabric pWWN, FC ID, or Fibre Channel alias) and value specified:
switch(config-zone)# member device-alias device1
